I like real stories of actual failure-- they tend to be illuminating. and yes, successes all have failures. I'm not sure what made me wonder if these were going to be fake-failures, you know like in an interview when you are asked your fault you say "I work too hard."

I've admired failcon historically for being a safe place for people to relate real failures they learned from and worry it's gotten to big to feel private enough to confess. Then again, maybe it's cool now to admit you've fucked up!
